Ah, yeah, you missed `-` in `-m=2`. Is that helped you?

By the way, this game is not the first one I saw with a different RNC output algo. Another one for GBA, as I remember.
April 12, 2021, 10:49:31 am - (Auto Merged - Double Posts are not allowed before 7 days.)Just checked the algo: my program compresses as it must be. I've just checked the repacked file (reinserted it) and it works as usual.
It means, that you reinserting your binaries in a wrong way. Try to fill up the rest of the new packed binary with zeroes to match the original size.

I can try to find an exact value in the game rom, but it requires a time.

Also, your game may use a different dictionary size. Check the readme of the repository for how to specify the dictionary size.
But to identify the size which has been used by developers you must find it in the code, or just bruteforce - at some value it must produce the same binaries as in the game.

Try to use the last build from here: https://github.com/lab313ru/rnc_propack_source/releases
Also, make sure you're not overwriting another data/code with the repacked one.

If your TIM became bigger size after exproting from Photoshop, it means than you have selected wrong bitmode when did it.

If you see nothing, try to change Transparence View mode to "No Transparence".
P.S. Download last version of T2V here: https://code.google.com/p/tim2view/

Hi!
DragonSpikeXIII, your problem is so simple...
Where did you find any type of compression? How do you know, that any compressions exists at all?

I've checked AC3 CDs, and 've found non-compressed TIMs. If you want to edit those TIMs, you can use Tim2View to extract/insert all TIMs (it works much faster than TimView+). Then, for editing extracted TIMs you can use Optpix, or Photoshop plugin (but check bitmode, when saving). That's all!

P.S. r43 version of Tim2View was released.

I'm one of authors of TimView Plus. It will be cool, if somebody will write some words about our program.
Thanks!
